Focus ‘Cross Expert’ from around 2008 bought off Henry semi-built for ?150 then fitted with Corinne’s old Ultegra groupset courtesy the Bike Whisperer.
“Very carefully looked after, raced this winter – but mostly bought by me to donate parts to another build.”
It comes as:
Super lightweight aluminium frame and carbon Forks
Schwalbe Racing Ralph cross tyres
Mavic Aksium Race wheels with Ultegra cassette
Bars and stem
and Truvativ Elite 48/34 crankset (175mm) and BB”
I added the post, saddle and pedals from the broken Condor and then shipped it over to Mal’s parent’s place in southern Poland.
It did over 400k during our week there without any issues. Great little bike for exploring on.
The only thing I’d change on it would be to swap the knobbies for road tyres and perhaps the Jagwire canti brake pads for something grippier and less likely to squeal.
